Daily Bible Reading: 1 Samuel 21-23

1 Samuel 22:20-23 (ESV) But one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped and fled after David. And Abiathar told David that Saul had killed the priests of the LORD. And David said to Abiathar, “I knew on that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. I have occasioned the death of all the persons of your father’s house. Stay with me; do not be afraid, for he who seeks my life seeks your life. With me you shall be in safekeeping.”

David then was joined by Abiathar (vv. 20–23), son of the priest Ahimelech, who fled to David after Saul exterminated the whole priestly community. This marked the beginning of David’s priestly staff who would later lead the tabernacle worship in Jerusalem.^[1]
